Improved Readability

Installation Instructions
Just unzip the archive below into your Assetto Corsa installation directory.
If you have a previous version of Sidekick installed, answer Yes when prompted to overwrite existing files. Settings, odometer readings, laptimes, and generated car information from previous versions will not be overwritten, but I strongly recommend backing up the \Assetto Corsa\apps\python\sidekick directory first just in case you have any issues.
Full documentation, change log, and previous versions can be found on the main SideKick Extended page, here.

Just found this app. Lots of great information in such a small package. One thing I wished I could configure would be the air and track temp from Celsius to Fahrenheit.

What’s the difference between red and yellow shift and how to use it to get the best out of my engine?

Love this app. I use it a lot. Thanks for improving it!
IAN says:
Thank you for your work in making an awesome and indispensable app even better!
I just have one small request, I don’t know if it’s feasible or easy to do, just thought I’d ask.
In the “delta” section, there are four options to choose from, “front”, “back”, “best” and “personal best”. By default it is set to “front” but I always like to set it to “personal best” for when I’m hotlapping. Would it be possible to make the default setting choosable by the user, it would save me a few mouse clicks in having to change it every time :).
Thanks again for all your efforts.

Nice improvements on Sidekick!
Just an idea how to improve it further….would be cool to see in the second row if the lights on the car are switched on or not as on some cars there is in-car no indicator for this.
Kind regards
